Artcare Quality

Alphamat Artcare – quality with no damaging pollutants

Alphamat Artcare mounts and mountboard contain innovative Microchamber papers, that absorb invasive airborne pollutants. This technology renders such substances harmless – both from the outside environment and from materials in the picture and frame. Art, photos, documents, indeed everything that is valuable to you, is actively protected from deterioration and ageing.

Lightfastness not Fading.

Alphamat Artcare is produced with pigment colour, not dyes, thus ensuring the stability of your mountboard colour for years.

Ageless not ageing

Alphamat Artcare is made using alkaline buffers that protect against ageing. A long life protected from damaging acids ensures that white bevel cut edges stay white when you use Alphamat Artcare.

Resistance to humidity – no colour runs

In contrast to simple dyes, the pigment colours of Alphamat Artcare are not affected by humidity, making it your guarantee of enduring colour fidelity.
